This years Soho location is still under construction. Front Entry sidewalks and landscaping have yet to be completed. The interior of both townhouses are elegantly complete and detailed to perfection.

Touring the townhouses likens to walking through a gallery of fine art and inspirational living. It’s worth the effort to stop and visit 40 Sullivan near Spring Street. Much appreciation to Photographer, Alan Barry for allowing me to pepper his images throughout the 3 Holiday House stories – Story One – Story Two.

Thank you to Iris Danknerwho continues to be a pillar of society with a heart of gold.
